Bed bugs are nocturnal feeders, which means most of the day they're tucked away out of sight — here's where to look.
Common Daytime Hiding Spots
- Mattress seams and piping
- Bed frame joints and screw holes
- Behind headboards
- Skirting boards near the bed
- Inside bedside furniture
- Behind loose wallpaper
Why They Hide So Well
Bed bugs are flat and thin, allowing them to squeeze into gaps as narrow as a credit card's edge, which is exactly why they're so difficult to spot without a proper inspection.
How Professionals Find Them
A trained eye knows exactly where to check first, using torches and inspection tools to check the gaps DIY attempts usually miss entirely.
